Deliberate mistake: Bargain Bin: When Homer mistakes the video game boss for his literal boss, he takes out a clipboard so that he can look busy. Aside from being part of the set up for a joke, there is no reason for Homer to have this clipboard on him, nor would there have been anywhere for him to have been hiding it (unless it was just tucked into the back of the trousers).

Trivia: This game offers 16 levels with different 2-character groupings. There are seven levels with Homer and Bart (eight if you count Game Over for the Wii and PSP versions), three with Bart and Lisa, two with Marge and Lisa, one with Homer and Lisa and one with Homer and Marge. However, there are no levels in the game that feature a 2-character grouping between Marge and Bart. The closest the game ever gets to this is the 4-character grouping Game Over (but only for the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions).
